    Hello all,

    Just recently I can't fullscreen youtube or see the buttons on the video. I have the latest flash version.

    Use mozilla and IE, both don't work.

    Any ideas?

    Yeah this happened to me. Don't bother re-installing that won't fix the problem.

    This is a known issue. Seems to be related to the latest update of Adobe Flash. It is nothing that you are doing wrong.

    And @seraphkz - I don't know about you, but Search never seems to work reliably for me. For example, I often have a hard time finding my own posts that are a week or two old.

    Oh ok. Sorry. But I reverted my flash players to an older version found on Adobe Flash Player Archive page.

    If you right click the video and uncheck hardware acceleration it might fix it. It did for me.
